Latest! N-type Silicon Wafers Plummeted 7.1%!
Recently, the price of N-type silicon wafers has fallen sharply again, with a decline of 7.1%. This news has attracted widespread attention in the industry. It is reported that silicon wafer prices fell again this week, and current transactions are mainly focused on clearing early inventory. In March, silicon wafer production capacity reached a new high, reaching 69.75GW. The speed of inventory digestion at the silicon wafer end has increased, and polysilicon companies have basically maintained production at full capacity.
The average transaction price of M10 monocrystalline silicon wafers (182mm/150μm) dropped to 0.244 yuan/piece, a week-on-week decrease of 2.22%; the average transaction price of N-type monocrystalline silicon wafers (183.75mm/130μm/256mm) dropped to 0.235 yuan/piece. wafers, a week-on-week decrease of 7.10%; the average transaction price of G12 monocrystalline silicon wafers (210 mm/150 μm) dropped to 0.351 yuan/piece, a week-on-week decrease of 3.41%.
So why did N-type silicon wafer prices plummet? First of all, the current silicon wafer production capacity in the market has increased significantly, resulting in a situation of oversupply in the market, which has caused the price of silicon wafers to continue to fall. In addition, the slowdown in demand for new energy vehicles has also put greater downward pressure on silicon wafer prices.
However, it must be pointed out that the plunge in N-type silicon wafers does not mean that the overall silicon wafer market is facing difficulties. On the contrary, silicon wafer production continues to increase, and the overall situation of the silicon wafer market is good. Moreover, polysilicon companies still maintain full production capacity, which also shows that the silicon wafer market is performing very positively. In addition, the silicon wafer industry is also constantly innovating, strengthening technological upgrading and product innovation, so as to better adapt to market demand.
Although the current silicon wafer prices have experienced certain fluctuations, in the long run, the silicon wafer market is expected to grow steadily. As fields such as new energy, smart manufacturing, and the Internet continue to develop, the demand for silicon wafers will gradually increase. Therefore, we should have an optimistic attitude towards the silicon wafer market, strive to create a favorable environment for its development, and promote the steady and healthy development of the industry.
In general, the collapse of N-type silicon wafers is a short-term phenomenon. We should treat it rationally and remain optimistic. Although there are certain fluctuations in the silicon wafer market, the overall performance is positive and there is still huge potential in the future. Silicon wafer companies should accelerate technological upgrading and product innovation, and continuously improve their competitiveness to better adapt to market demand. At the same time, the government should also strengthen its support for the silicon wafer industry and create a better development environment for it.
